- 2
We keep checking
Every link is opened again about every three days, and when you open the editor.

Fix it fast
A broken link is flagged in the editor and on your dashboard, and you get an email.
What you can do
Everything it can do.
What counts as broken
A page that's not found (404) or gone (410) counts straight away. Timeouts, other server errors and domains that don't answer only count after two failed checks in a row at least an hour apart, so a site that's down for a minute isn't flagged.
Quiet unless it's sure
A false alarm costs your trust, so sites that turn bots away are treated as working. That covers 401, 403 and 429 answers, a 500 or 503, and Cloudflare checks, which real visitors usually get past.
When it checks
A daily sweep opens each link on a published page again once it's three days old. Opening the editor checks anything not looked at in the last 12 hours. Change a link's address and its warning clears straight away.
Where you hear about it
Broken links show in the editor with a short reason and the status code, and on your dashboard. Links that break in a sweep come to you by email, at most once a day per page, and you can switch those emails off.
Which links it covers
Links and discount buttons are checked, since those are what send visitors somewhere. Web addresses only: email and phone links are left alone.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How often are my links checked?
About every three days, plus a fresh check when you open the editor if a link hasn't been looked at in 12 hours.
A link works for me but it's flagged. Why?
When we last opened it, it came back not found, or failed twice in a row. Check it in a private window. If it works now, the warning clears at the next check.
Why wasn't a broken link flagged?
Some sites answer bots with an error even when the page is fine, so those answers count as working. It's a trade-off that keeps false alarms away.
Does it check social icons?
No. It checks links and discount buttons, the blocks that send visitors to another site.
Can I turn the emails off?
Yes, in your notification settings. Broken links still show in the editor and on your dashboard.
